q t asked: My car tires are starting to get worn down on the top part of the tire facing the car. It only does this to the back wheels.. One of my friends said it could be the lower control arm bushings (no idea what the is). Does this sound right? What else could cause this?

Screwpilot asked: I have a pretty old used 1992 crown victoria with 152k miles on it, that might be why. But still it seems to have started vibrating more recently. I used to be able to go 110mph with it a little vibrating, now if I try to go past 100mph it starts to feel like the car is gonna blow apart. Aspecially the turning wheel. What makes it vibrate? Is it the tires? Suspension? Motor?

SESHADRI K asked: To put it in other words, I would like to help a Quiz Master who is trying to find an answer since some time for a common question that arises on all the youngesters who touch the steering wheel. It is the longest distance driving at a short time that has a recognised record. I am of the opinion Farmula IV records will solve the a part of it but it is incomplete! Can any one of you help me to help my firend please?

Mark A asked: My car is making a weird ticking noise coming from the front. It happens when the car is moving, with engine on or off, or even in neutral. Whenever car is moving, and only when moving, the noise happens.
Gets faster when car is faster.
Thanks for any help!
Does not come from either wheel as we jacked each side up on left the other side on ground, and with only one side spinning at a time, it still made the noise.

duck3182 asked: Sometimes when I drive on wet roads (especially highways at speeds 70+), my steering wheel has episodes where it is a little harder to steer and it seems like something else has taken control of it. The steering wheel isnt out of my control, just a little more difficult to steer. This more often happens when the car in front of me is quite close and water splashes from their tires directly into my car.
Is this hydroplaning?

kate asked: I stopped my 1995 Jeep Cherokee today and put the car into park but the key would not come out of the ignition. It is stuck in the on position. (I can tap they key just enough to get the engine to turn off, but cannot get the ignition to turn to off or unlock.)
I can still start up the car and drive it around. If I push on the brake, I can shift in and out of park. I’ve tried wiggling the steering wheel, “firmly turning” the steering wheel, and moving in and out of park. I’ve tried starting it up and driving it around again. I’ve looked (unsuccessfully) for any ignition button under the steering wheel.
But I still cannot get the key out of the ignition!

Will B asked:
I have a 06plate Vauxhall Corse SXI. It has the controlls on the stearingwheel that allows you to controll the factory fitted cd player and radio.
I was wondering if there are any car steroes available that you can use these controlls with? I’m looking for a car stereo that I can controll my iPod with, or that at least has an AUX port.
